Greek Mythology: A Weekly Interactive Study of the Greek Gods

Calling all Percy Jackson fans and lovers of fantasy, mythology, and history!

This class is great to open a door to this time in history where fantasy ran wild and life's mysteries were explained through various gods. 

Students will learn about a new Greek god each week through an interactive lecture, group discussion, and mini drawing exercise. No previous experience or knowledge required, just an appetite to learn and have fun.

My classes are high-energy and filled with fun facts that will blow your mind! 

Each class begins with an icebreaker or warmup, and includes a brief interactive lecture, discussion with peers, and a short drawing activity to demonstrate what you've learned.
